Technical Analysis from A to Z
--Steven B Achelis

[Phaedrus]

I usually recommend "Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets" by John Murphy. ISBN 0-7352-0066-1 $140. This 540 page book covers most of the major facets of technical analysis, making it a good introductory text. It is one of the three books required for the American Chartered Market Technician Program. (The other two are "Technical Analysis of Stock Trends" by Edwards and Magee, and "Technical Analysis Explained" by Martin Pring.)

Thanks Old Rider and Phaedrus.

I found one of Phaedrus posts/blogs in the share trader archives from 2002 recommending both those books. http://www.sharechat.co.nz/archives/2002/03/msg00009.shtml
